Barriers and enablers to wellbeing for
distance learning students
Project in the Open University between 2018 and 2021
aimed to apply a social model approach to mental health.
RQ1: What barriers and enablers to mental wellbeing do
students experience in distance learning?
RQ2: What solutions do students and staff perceive
would reduce these barriers?
RQ3: How can these solutions be embedded in distance
learning?

Barriers and
enablers to wellbeing
Interviews (N=21) and survey
(N=584) results revealed a
taxonomy of themes.
Most themes appeared as both
barriers and enablers, meaning
that a factor can be a barrier or
an enabler, depending how it is
designed and how the person
experiences it.

University staff wellbeing
Barriers and enablers to
university staff wellbeing
A social media call on university staff
wellbeing in 2022 suggested themes of:
• Academic culture, values and being
valued
• Leadership, working
practices/restrictions and work
environments
• Confidence, self-awareness and trust
Barriers to staff wellbeing
o Academic workplace culture
o Competition
o Presenteeism
o Casualisation
o Workload
o Workaholism
o Burnout
o Space Efficiency
o Inequalities and discrimination
o Gender inequality
o Race and ethnicity-related discrimination
o Disability and ableism
o Homophobia and LGBTQ+ discrimination
o Third space, recognition, professional services
o Wellbeing and Mental Health Literacy
Barriers to staff wellbeing
“Staff and student wellbeing are not separate
issues but need to be considered as mutually
dependent parts of the same ecosystem. The
literature suggests, and it is the authors’ firm
belief, that working towards an integrated,
holistic approach to staff and student wellbeing
may be beneficial for all.”
“It is essential that universities find ways to
counter the toxic and competitive cultures of
the past and move towards a strategic vision
that supports a culture of compassion,
belonging and equality for staff and students.”

5.1. APD has had a positive impact on me. X2 (6, N=274) =14.207, p=.027
5.12. After an APD event, I feel good in and of
myself. X2 (6, N=274) =20.217, p=.003 X2 (9, N=274) =32.740, p<.001

Community
5.9. I've met colleagues I might not have
5.10. APD gives me a sense of community X2 (6, N=274) =12.383, p=.046 X2 (9, N=274) =22.734, p=.007
Confidence

Workloads, culture, isolation, technology
“It is hard to feel a sense of belonging when
all work is distance. I do not meet colleagues
face to face and as an associate, although
everybody is lovely and will help when I reach
out, it is hard to feel part of the team.”
“I feel a gap between management
and staff... lack of belongingness..”
“The single thing that hinders my day to day is the
huge volume of technology - I struggle to cope with
my tasks because of all the IT aspects that I can't do.”
“Without a clear, strong sense of
development, I feel restless and
unfulfilled. I have recently requested a
mentor, so I hope this helps.”
“[APD is] a fantastic way to meet colleagues that you
wouldn't usually work with. It definitely contributes to
the community. It's just balancing workload to engage
with APD that's the main challenge. From a well-being
perspective, I'd like to engage with APD more, but I
can't due to volume of work - which can create feelings
of stress.”
Further work
needed
• Interviews and surveys with distance
learning staff in different institutions
• Establishing a taxonomy of barriers
and enablers for staff
• Trialling and evaluating case studies
of practice to enhance wellbeing, a
‘what works’ approach
• ….Anyone interested in collaborating?

Student and staff mental wellbeing- Kate Lister.pptx

  • 1. Student and staff mental wellbeing in online, open and distance higher education Professor Kate Lister Associate Dean/Director of EDI at Arden University Visiting Professor at the Open University UK
  • 4. 12/05/2024 Barriers and enablers to wellbeing for distance learning students Project in the Open University between 2018 and 2021 aimed to apply a social model approach to mental health. RQ1: What barriers and enablers to mental wellbeing do students experience in distance learning? RQ2: What solutions do students and staff perceive would reduce these barriers? RQ3: How can these solutions be embedded in distance learning?
  • 5. 12/05/2024 Barriers and enablers to wellbeing Interviews (N=21) and survey (N=584) results revealed a taxonomy of themes. Most themes appeared as both barriers and enablers, meaning that a factor can be a barrier or an enabler, depending how it is designed and how the person experiences it. Lister et al, 2021
  • 7. Positive Digital Practices A two-year £350k collaborative project, funded by Office for Students, creating resources for part-time, distance and commuter students. Resource hub: https://positivedigitalpractices.we ebly.com/resource-hub.html
  • 9. Barriers and enablers to university staff wellbeing A social media call on university staff wellbeing in 2022 suggested themes of: • Academic culture, values and being valued • Leadership, working practices/restrictions and work environments • Confidence, self-awareness and trust
  • 10. Barriers to staff wellbeing o Academic workplace culture o Competition o Presenteeism o Casualisation o Workload o Workaholism o Burnout o Space Efficiency o Inequalities and discrimination o Gender inequality o Race and ethnicity-related discrimination o Disability and ableism o Homophobia and LGBTQ+ discrimination o Third space, recognition, professional services o Wellbeing and Mental Health Literacy
  • 11. Barriers to staff wellbeing “Staff and student wellbeing are not separate issues but need to be considered as mutually dependent parts of the same ecosystem. The literature suggests, and it is the authors’ firm belief, that working towards an integrated, holistic approach to staff and student wellbeing may be beneficial for all.” “It is essential that universities find ways to counter the toxic and competitive cultures of the past and move towards a strategic vision that supports a culture of compassion, belonging and equality for staff and students.”

  • 16.

  • 17. Workloads, culture, isolation, technology “It is hard to feel a sense of belonging when all work is distance. I do not meet colleagues face to face and as an associate, although everybody is lovely and will help when I reach out, it is hard to feel part of the team.” “I feel a gap between management and staff... lack of belongingness..” “The single thing that hinders my day to day is the huge volume of technology - I struggle to cope with my tasks because of all the IT aspects that I can't do.” “Without a clear, strong sense of development, I feel restless and unfulfilled. I have recently requested a mentor, so I hope this helps.” “[APD is] a fantastic way to meet colleagues that you wouldn't usually work with. It definitely contributes to the community. It's just balancing workload to engage with APD that's the main challenge. From a well-being perspective, I'd like to engage with APD more, but I can't due to volume of work - which can create feelings of stress.”
  • 18. Further work needed • Interviews and surveys with distance learning staff in different institutions • Establishing a taxonomy of barriers and enablers for staff • Trialling and evaluating case studies of practice to enhance wellbeing, a ‘what works’ approach • ….Anyone interested in collaborating?
